16. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from Isma’il ibn Mehran from ‘Uthman ibn Jabalah from abu Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following: “The Messenger of Allah has said, ‘Whoever has three things, or even one of them, will have a place under the shadow of the Throne of Allah on the Day when nothing will have any shadows (protective shelter). A man who gives to others what he asks from them, one who does not prevent another man from a forward position or move backward except after knowing that his own moving forward is what Allah wants. A Muslim does not blame his Muslim brethren for a shortcoming until he removes such shortcoming from his own self; as soon one removes one defect from his soul another shortcoming and defect emerges. To be occupied with correcting one’s own self is a full time occupation (to deal with before getting involved in people).”’

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.

17. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Hammad al-Kufi from ‘Abd Allah ibn Ibrahim al-Ghifari from Ja’far ibn Ibrahim al-Ja’fari from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “The Messenger of Allah has said, ‘Whoever comforts the poor with his property and yields to justice for people against his own soul indeed is a believer.”

18. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Sinan from Khalid ibn Nafi’ Bayya’ al-Sabiri from Yusuf al- Bazzaz who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) say, ‘If two people disagree in something, one of them gives half as much to his companion, but if he would not accept, it will be compensated for him (recipient of more than half for his injustice).’”
